Although he is vulnerable, I think Dayton will likely edge out a close victory in Minnesota unless his opponent is Mark Kennedy. If Kennedy runs, Dayton will probably lose. Ive heard from others that Kennedy is very popular in Minnesota and will be the toughest opponent for Dayton. Your from Minnesota so maybe you could ellaborate on that? Now, Norm Coleman. I believe he is gearing up to run for president in 2008.

I don't know who told you that, but it's hardly true. Kennedy hasn't even broken 60% in his own congressional district, he's hardly very popular statewide. In fact, I'd consider him the weakest candidate out of Minnesota's 4 GOP Congressmen. The strongest would be Jim Ramstad, but he almost certainly will not run.

And if Coleman wants to run for president on a record of a 1 term Senator who hasn't done anything and just is a complete party hack, he can go ahead. But he will be very beatable in 2008 if he runs agin.

I was just browsing over at another board and I saw someone say Kennedy was popular and may beat Dayton.

I'm hoping you never suggested Barack Obama for President in 2008. He actually wouldn't even be a one term Senator....more like a half of a term.

I have not and I have argued against people on DU who have.

Good. It really is too bad people think he's ready to run for President. A few months ago, the guy was still a State Senator.

I agree. He needs to develop in the US senate first and see where the country is 10-12 years from now. By then this country may be ready for an African American preisdent, but right now I cant see it happening. Still, its not everyday that a young, charismatic, intelligent, political star rises. You cant blame the Dem's for being excited about the guy.

I know I want Santorum out, but I hope we don't lose Dayton. This is definitely going to drain from the DSCC's effort to oust Santorum. You would think the Dems minimum has bottomed out, but it seems it's only getting worse. I was also hoping for pickups in Missouri and Virginia.
